The Principality of Rhovannion Lordship is a massive, efficient nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 2.832 billion Rhovanese are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.
The relatively small, moralistic, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Spirituality. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.5%.
The very strong Rhovannion Lordshipian economy, worth 185 trillion Emeralds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 65,333 Emeralds, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 273,603 per year while the poor average 10,157, a ratio of 26.9 to 1.
Scenic tours are unheard of after most environmental laws were abolished, the police force is on a recruitment drive, preschoolers practice disarming active shooters before naptime, and young children are regularly seen wagering pocket money at blackjack tables. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rhovannion Lordship's national animal is the Bao Bao, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Rhovannion Lordship is ranked 110,731st in the world and 25th in Merciam for Safest, scoring 77.98 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
